Chapter 11: Chen Yongren

Time passed as Wang Yan made continuous progress.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed. It was now June 1991, and Wang Yan would be released from prison in three months.

During the past six months, Wang Yan's improvement has also been huge.

Sitting on the bed, Wang Yan called up the panel

... Omit a bunch of skills.

Wang Yan, at the cost of overdrawing his body's potential, underwent near-frenzied training and constant injury recovery. His physical fitness naturally increased by two points, and two more were added, with strength and agility each increasing by four points. His weight also increased from 160 kg to 175 kg. Even after the system's compression, Wang Yan still looked thin, but he had noticeably gained some weight. This weight gain could be attributed to his training.

At this point, Wang Yan clearly felt that his body had reached its limits. If he continued to maintain his current physique, it would be difficult to improve his physical fitness through natural exercise. He could only develop his current potential and improve his strength and agility. For Wang Yan, the current training was just that. If he wanted to improve further, he would have to rely on adding more.

To Wang Yan's surprise, his spirits lifted slightly. He suspected this might be due to his frantic training, and the pain of recovering from injuries that had tempered his mental fortitude. Unfortunately, this opportunity would only come once. With his current body, he couldn't even begin to stimulate himself.

There is not much change in the skills, except for the combat level 3. I have been reading books for half a year and have mastered some skills.

After some thought, Wang Yan allocated his remaining two attributes to his Constitution. This world was still very dangerous, and his mental state was sufficient for now. Wang An quietly sensed the divine power the system was applying to his body. He could clearly feel his body growing stronger. The feeling of being able to control himself and dominate others was addictive.

The attribute after adding points becomes

Wang Yan

Attribute: Strength 18

Agility 17

Constitution 20

Spirit 14

Constitution increased by two points, strength and agility increased by one point each, and weight increased from 175 to a terrifying 180.

A normal height of 183cm and a weight of 180kg already looks a bit fat. Tyson is 178cm tall and weighs around 200kg, and you can tell by looking at Tyson's body. Wang Yan is still a little thin, so you can imagine how terrifying the density of Wang Yan's body is.

、、、

Over such a long period of time, there has been a lot of movement of people coming in and out of Wang Yan's cell.

Three months ago, an unexpected person came to Wang Yan's prison: Sha Qiang, who was sentenced to six months for car theft.

When he saw Sha Qiang Wang Yan, he understood everything. The system provided him with some conveniences to contact Chen Yongren first.

Wang Yan didn't care. He had no intention of becoming Han Chen's henchman and then acting as Chen Yongren's babysitter. Knowing the plot and his memories, Wang Yan could easily wipe out Han Chen in a few years. If that was the case, then why bother with all these useless things?

Because of Wang Yan's previous fame and the bragging of various gangsters, most of the gangsters now know who Wang Yan is, and others will politely call him "Brother Yan" when they see him.

When these people heard about this tough guy outside, they might not have taken him seriously. But after witnessing Wang Yan's methods in prison, they understood the saying "there is no false reputation under a great name."

Therefore, with so many people coming and going, there were no blind people who would show off or talk nonsense in front of Wang Yan.

Although Sha Qiang is called Sha Qiang, he is not really stupid. He is also sensible and knows who to offend and who not to offend. In prison, he is always flattering Yan Ge.

Wang Yan wasn't the type to seek trouble or force himself to show off. As long as they didn't get in his way, he didn't care. Now that no one challenged him, he spent his free time reading. A corner of his cell was filled with books, all the ones he'd read over the past six months.

You're such a tough guy, with such a great reputation, and yet you spend all day in jail reading books? The gangsters all thought Wang Yan was weird, that his style didn't fit in with theirs, and that reading and studying was pointless; he must have a brain problem.

Wang Yan knew this very well, but he didn't care what others thought. He just did his own thing and enjoyed it.

Wang Yan, with nothing else to do that day, sat on his bed, reading as usual. Hearing the sound of the cell door opening, he looked up. He saw a face that bore a striking resemblance to A Liang's youth. Chen Yongren had arrived. He paused for a moment, then returned to his reading, ignoring him.

Sha Qiang was chatting with the other gangsters when he heard the noise and saw Chen Yongren coming in, stunned for a moment. Then he burst into laughter. Chen Yongren, no pushover, went right in. At first, Sha Qiang and the others didn't dare to attack, relying on passive defense, mainly because Wang Yan's intimidating power was too strong. Wang Yan wasn't crazy, so why would he bother with that?

Seeing Wang Yan remained silent, they began to beat up Chen Yongren. In the end, both were injured, and they were both scolded by the prison guards and sent to the infirmary.

Chen Yongren was sentenced to three months and was released from prison almost at the same time as Wang Yan.

In the following period of time, after Chen Yongren gradually became familiar with life in prison and understood the situation of this prison clearly, he was completely confused.

Fighting rings and gambling dens were set up in the prison, and even more outrageously, he witnessed drug trafficking. Chinese guards, foreign police officers, and the dregs of society were all colluding with each other, working hand in glove. Some guards even fraternized with the gangs, calling each other "brothers." Just like Wang Yan, who was in his cell, almost all the guards called him "Brother Yan." This situation reminded him of the legendary era of the Four Great Inspectors. What was different between then and now?

This is understandable. The foreigners, taking advantage of the few years left, are constantly making small moves, frantically cashing in. The Chinese, on the other hand, have their own agendas and struggle to unite. The police force, on the other hand, is an even more complex world of fame and fortune, relying on the loyalty of senior officers to maintain a semblance of harmony.

This made Chen Yongren, who was full of justice in his heart, begin to doubt himself and wonder if his persistence was really right?

When meeting Chen Yongren, Huang Zhicheng was very sensitive to Chen Yongren's abnormality and kept trying to fool and comfort him.

"We are the police officers of Hong Kong Island, and it is our duty to fight crime. But the situation is complicated now. The police force and even the entire Hong Kong Island are not controlled by us Chinese. Although you are young, I think you should understand what I mean. Before that, all we can do is to keep looking for evidence and keep persisting. Victory will always come, won't it?" Huang Zhicheng continued to guide Chen Yongren in terms of faith, situation, and personal thoughts.

Then Chen Yongren told Huang Zhicheng about Wang Yan's situation.

The police were well aware of Wang Yan, and had noticed him since the beginning of his gambling den. By the time Wang Yan became famous in Hong Kong and Kowloon, he had already been thoroughly investigated by the police.

Wang Yan's identity was arranged by the system. Except for this time when he was accused, he was just a bigger gangster.

This left the police with little recourse. If they had a solution, they wouldn't have turned a prison into a casino. Besides, Wang Yan had only injured someone slightly more severely in a fight, and he was still in prison. What could they do? They could only keep a close eye on him, and once there was solid evidence, they would strike back.

Besides, Wang Yan is from Tuen Mun, and Huang Zhicheng is from Tsim Sha Tsui. It will take some time to study whether they have the power to enforce the law.

Huang Zhicheng said to Chen Yongren, "Your main task is to approach Sha Qiang. As for Wang Yan, just keep an eye on him. Tell me if there's anything else."

After that, he stuffed some money into Chen Yongren's pocket. You can buy anything in prison these days. He then said a bunch of meaningless words of encouragement and left.

After returning to the cell, he called out "Brother Yan" to say hello, then picked up a book from the corner and read it absent-mindedly while lying on the bed.

Wang Yan, who was reading, was annoyed by the noise of Chen Yongren flipping through the book: "If you're not reading, just keep your eyes closed and stop flipping around."

Chen Yongren, awakened by Wang Yan's words, quickly apologized to Wang Yan: "I'm sorry, Brother Yan. I was a little distracted."

Although he'd been there only a short time, he'd witnessed Wang Yan's ruthlessness in his fights. Even though Wang Yan read a lot every day, and he knew he was a reasonable man, that was only possible because he held a high position. If Wang Yan got mad, he wouldn't even have to fight back; the other gangsters in the cell would be brought to heel.

Wang Yan took out a cigarette and put it between his lips. Chen Yongren saw the opportunity and stepped forward to light the cigarette. He threw another cigarette to Chen Yongren. Wang Yan took a deep breath and said, "Hiss... Huh..."

He exhaled the cigarette, got up comfortably and walked out, motioning Chen Yongren to follow him. He said to him, "Come with me for a stroll. I've been sitting for half a day to stretch my muscles."

Prison management is very lax these days. Apart from being forbidden from escaping, contestants like Wang Yan can basically do whatever they want. After notifying the prison guards, he led Chen Yongren to the playground.

The sunlight felt particularly comfortable on him. Wang Yan stretched lazily and said to Chen Yongren, "You look so gloomy every day. Is there something on your mind, you poor boy?"

Chen Yongren lied, "No, Brother Yan. I just got hurt in a fight a few days ago and it hasn't healed yet."

Seeing him say that, Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Then you should have a good rest."

"I always feel like you're different from everyone else."

Seeing Chen Yongren sweating profusely and opening his mouth to explain something, Wang Yan didn't want to listen to his nonsense and interrupted him, "Okay, you can come to me if you need anything. Let's go."

Chen Yongren felt as if he had been pardoned. Just now, hearing Wang Yan say he was different had frightened him to the point of his heart leaping out of his chest. This was also because Chen Yongren was relatively young, only in his twenties. He had little experience and his mental state was still quite poor. If he heard someone say this in a few years, he would definitely approach with a smile and flattery, then start to talk nonsense.

Watching Chen Yongren scurry away in a panic, Wang Yan shook his head. He was too naive. He was lucky to have survived Ni Yongxiao's clutches. One reason was their blood relationship, and another was Luo Ji's willingness to risk his life to save him. What a lucky guy!

After that, Wang Yan didn't have much contact with Chen Yongren. If Chen Yongren was to be redeemed, his early experiences couldn't be altered. He had to experience pain before he could even be redeemed. The later stages could be handled however he pleased, depending on Wang Yan's mood.

As time passed, with their purposeful approach, the relationship between Sha Qiang and Chen Yongren became better and better.

Wang Yan couldn't make a move for ten days or half a month, because except for a few thugs who didn't believe in evil and wanted to step on Wang Yan to get to the top, no one challenged him anymore.

Wang Yan's physique was no exaggeration. Even five or six red sticks couldn't defeat him. He could easily knock down any ordinary fighter with just one punch.

It is estimated that after he gets out, many people will come to worship him as the big brother, and his younger brothers before he was arrested and imprisoned will definitely come to pick him up from prison in a grand manner.

"But I'm going out now." Wang Yan said to himself.

Today is Wang Yan’s last day in prison, and he will be released tomorrow.

Call up the panel and look at the body data

Wang Yan

Attribute: Strength 20

Agility 20

Constitution 20

Spirit 14

Three months later, Wang Yan had developed his current body to its limits, with Strength, Agility, and Physical Fitness all reaching 20. With Wang Yan's current physical qualities, coupled with his professional-level fighting abilities, while he likely couldn't defeat Tyson, he could probably put up a fight. Wang Yan estimated that if he could improve his Physical Fitness by another three or five points, he would have an 80% chance of knocking out Tyson.

Don’t think about anything else. You’ve been in jail for a year and you’ve thought about almost everything you can think of.

Cover yourself with the quilt and go to sleep. You will be released from prison tomorrow.
